Publishing new content on a regular basis is an effective reader engagement strategy. You're giving readers a reason to come back to your site again and again. A steady stream of new posts is also -- we think -- part of an effective SEO strategy that helps pages rank.

This article shows you how to manage post content from a single dashboard. You can publish, edit, and delete posts on multiple sites.

Opening the post dashboard

The first step is to open the site, or sites, which you want to manage. We showed you how to complete that step in a previous article.

Publishing a new post

There are two ways to create and publish a post: a single site or as a bulk post, which means one post published on multiple sites at the same time.

Each option is described below.

Single post 

On the WPBlazer dashboard, check the box beside the site that will get a new post. Click the Dashboard icon. A new page displays.

On the left menu, hover the mouse on the WordPress icon and then click Post. A new page displays.  

 Click the Add New Post button at the top of the page.

On the Enter Post Details page, add a title and content as well as a category, tags, and status. The status can be: Published, Pending Review, or Draft.

Click the Submit button to publish. Click the List Posts button at the top of the page return to the Posts dashboard.

Publishing a bulk post

The Bulk Post feature lets you create a single post and then publish it on multiple sites at the same time.

Starting on the WPBlazer dashboard, select the sites that will receive the bulk post. Click the Action button in the top right corner and then select Manage Selected Sites. A new page displays.

On the left menu, hover the mouse on the WordPress icon and then click Post. A new page displays.   

Click the Add Bulk Post button.

 

On the new page, select the sites that will receive the bulk post.

Scroll down the page and create a post by adding content to the Enter Post Details fields. 

Click the Submit button to publish. The Posts page displays the new posts.

Editing a post

You can edit a post from the Post dashboard. Posts created with the Bulk Post tool are edited individually on each site.

On the Post dashboard, locate the post you want to edit and then click the Edit icon. A new page displays.

On the Enter Post Details page, you can change the title, content, category, tags, and status (i.e. published, pending review, or draft).

Click the Submit button to save your changes.

Click the List Posts button at the top of the page to return to the Post dashboard.

Deleting a post

On the Post dashboard, locate the post you want to delete and then click the Trash bin icon.
